Jewel Quest

Moby ID: 16247

Windows version

Fun and addictive, but that wears off after a while.

The Good
Well, it's real simple. Real easy to play - nothing challenging here. Click to swap two jewels to match 3 or more in a line - same as any other 'match-3' game, actually.

There is a cute little storyline to help explain what you're doing and why you're doing it, which is nice and does help to keep you involved.

The Bad
It does get dull pretty quickly and the levels can get frustrating after a while. There's only so many times you can line up 3 jewels in a row before the brain starts to melt.

The Bottom Line
Not a bad way to waste time if that's what you like. Sometimes after a hard day's work it's nice to come home, crank up the stereo and mindlessly click the mouse for a few hours without worrying about running out of ammo or tire temperatures or whatever else bothers you during an evening's game play.

Worth playing if you like that sort of thing, but not worth the $20 asking price.
